We need a lot more info to help you. Tank specs, water quality, tank maturity, other tankmates, tank size, how long acclimation, etc all are lacking from your post. I would just turn the lights out, let him go to bed and see what comes of him tomorrow. Fish need time to adjust to their new environment. Anyway, hope this helps.

Kinda hard to get help if you dont mention specifics, saying the water is fine doesnt always mean its fine, also how did you aclimate it?
ammonia nitrite nitrate all at zero
igot my phtested at the store theytold me it was good
i acclimated him by putting the bag in thewater andevery 15min iwouldput in a tiny bit of my water after a bout 45 min i carefuly put him in making sure not to get thebag water in
but itwasn't that great a loss the dealer forgot to charge us for him
sorry forthe lack of info in myfirst thread
